It is exchanged in the same place as the mother. Carbon dioxide is exchanged in the lungs. The fetal blood is cared for in the body by the umbilical cord and the blood is filtered by the mothers organs and her lungs. Such is a strong reason never to smoke, drink or do drugs during pregnancy. Cord blood is extremely rich and full of good things for the child later in life if he or she gets sick. That is why you see ads on television for Cord Banks now.

What supplies oxygen and eliminates carbon dioxide from the blood stream?

Lungs and Lungs. Blood that contains carbon dioxide means it is lacking oxygen, and the carbon dioxide was put into the blood as a waste product by all the other organs. The blood then reaches the lungs and exchanges the carbon dioxide for oxygen. The now oxygen-rich blood is transported to the heart where it is pumped throughout the body, and the carbon dioxide is exhaled from the lungs.

What is deoxygenated blood?

it is blood that is rich in carbon dioxide rather than oxygen on the way back to the heart . the oxygen has been delivered to the body and carbon dioxide has replaced the oxygen. Blood that has released its oxygen. It is dark red in color with a tinge of blue. It is a common misconception that deoxygenated blood is blue. Oxygen bonds to hemoglobin in the blood cells and is transported to where it is needed in the body where it exchanges with carbon dioxide. Deoxygenated blood is found in veins and in the pulmonary artery.

What happens to the oxygen level in blood as it moves through the lungs?

As blood moves through the lungs, oxygen is exchanged for carbon dioxide. Oxygen diffuses from the air in the lungs into the blood, increasing the oxygen level in the blood. Conversely, carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood into the air in the lungs, decreasing the carbon dioxide level in the blood.


What gaseous exchanges take place when deoxygenated blood goes into the lungs?

Carbon dioxide is released from the blood to be exhaled and oxygen is taken up to be circulated through the body.
